GetBraille.com – Your Partner in CVAA Compliance

Understanding the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act or C.V.A.A.

The 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (CVAA) is designed to ensure that communications and video programming are accessible to people with disabilities in the digital age. It mandates that video content providers make their programming accessible through means such as audio description for the visually impaired and requires that certain devices and services support these accessibility features.

CVAA Compliance Requirements

Under the CVAA, video programming distributors, providers, and owners must make their content accessible to people with visual and hearing disabilities. This includes providing audio description for television programs and ensuring that on-screen text and important visual information are conveyed to viewers who are blind or visually impaired.
